Abstract (en)

In order to provide a battery coupling method and a battery coupling device with which it is possible to alleviate damage on a support member when coupling support members which support battery cells to the battery cells, provided is a battery coupling method with which spacers (40, 90) are coupled to a battery cell (10) which comprises a group of electrodes. The method comprises: a heating step (S12) in which protrusion parts (43, 93) formed on the spacers pass through holes (16) formed in the battery cell, the protrusion parts are pressed from the tip side thereof by a heating unit (120) and subsequently heated to form heat-deformed parts (42, 92) of a size which prevents extraction from the holes; a pressing step (S11) in which the spacers are pressed by a pressing unit (130) which approaches the spacers from the side where the heating unit is positioned; a heating unit separation step (S14) in which the heating unit is separated from the heat-deformed parts after the pressing step (S11); and a pressing unit separation step (S15) in which the pressing unit is separated from the spacers after the heating part separation step (S 14).
